Regirock (Japanese: レジロック Regirock) is a Template:Type2 legendary Pokémon.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

It is, along with Regice and Registeel, one of the three legendary golems of Hoenn.

Biology

Physiology

Regirock is a large golem made of rocks. Regirock has a braille pattern on its face that resembles a capital letter "H." An interesting thing about Regirock is that the rocks it is made of come from several different places. The reason for this is that whenever it gets damaged in battle, it searches for rocks to repair itself with. This habit also contributes to Regirock's patchwork appearance. What is even stranger is that Regirock has no internal organs.

Gender differences

Regirock is genderless.

Special abilities

Regirock mostly knows Rock, Ground and Fighting-type attacks. For some odd reason, Regirock can learn Electrical attacks, more specifically the move Zap Cannon that it learns naturally. If Regirock is damaged, it can repair itself by building its body with rocks.

Brandon used his Regirock again in DP128 in his battle against Paul, easily taking out Paul's Hariyama, Electabuzz, Ursaring, and Magmar.

Minor appearances

Regirock made an appearance with Regice and Registeel in the 8th Pokémon movie, Lucario and the Mystery of Mew. The trio of legendary golems were guardians of the Tree of Beginning, and attacked Ash and his friends. He was the first of the three to do this. In the end Regirock and the other members of its trio turned away and keeped on with protecting the Tree of Beginning.

Trivia

• Regirock is tied with Steelix for having the second highest Defense base stat of all Pokémon, only losing to Shuckle.
• Regirock's footprint has a striking resemblance to a Scarab Beetle.
  • However, its footprint is flat and rectangular in the anime.
• Regirock, Regice, and Registeel are the only Pokémon to have the strongest move by base attack power, Explosion, as a starting move.
• Both of the wild Regirock encounters are located in the desert.
• In Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, there is an unobtainable Regirock Doll programmed into the game. It may have been intended to be obtained with the e-Reader.
